Question: 522
5. Sad is to blue as happy is to:
- A. Glad
- B. Yellow
- C. Smiling
- D. Laugh
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
ad and blue are synonyms because they both describe the same type of mood. The word blue in this case is not referring to the color. Therefore, although Choice B, yellow, is sometimes considered a "happy" color, the question isn't referring to blue as a color. Yellow and happy are not synonyms. Someone who is happy may laugh or smile, Choices C and D. However, these words are not synonyms for happy. Lastly, someone who is happy may be calm, Choice E, although they could also be excited. Calm and happy are not synonyms. The best choice is glad.
